Just finished removing the manifold to replace the gaskets and am left with a dilema. The back bolt has been replaced with a female hex headed bolt. I have the bolts all back in place and ready for tightening, but would like to replace the female hex. I cant see how on earth I could access it to tighten it up. Any advise or comment welcome. MOT on Wednesday..

A what

grind the end off an Allen key and use a ratchet spanner to undo it?

Always never call an allen bolt a female hex bolt
